well, i double click on it and it gives me two options in order to open it. I can use the web to pick a program or choose a program from the options it gives me. None of the options are winzip or 7-zip. I checked the web option. It brings me to a site where I can download unzippers....but when I do, I still can't open the file.

Still looking for someone who knows how to do it. I have also been reading up on how to do it. I didn't know you save bios before you boot. I think a few more hours of reading and I'll be ready to try again. I will give it another go tomorrow night. My biggest issue has been getting the unzipped file on to the CD. It's not copying or something. So when I get to the boot step, nothing happens.I think I still may be missing a step, so I am going to read more.

The only other way I know of checking the RAM is to substitute good RAM chips for the old one but that's not a practical option. [You must be registered and logged in to see this link.] are more instructions how to run the test.
